Yea, I was a bit annoyed with mine. Moved onto a 1.2 16v and that's not much better so I'm getting a 1.3 turbo diesel which does 500 miles to a tank.

From whoever makes/distributes the wheels. You've got Fox wheels if I remember? Try speaking to Halfords as they should be able to get them in for you...

It largely depends on how your driving. If its all town then its about right, if its motorway its not. To a full tank in my 1.4 8v this is what i got (by full tank i mean filling up when it hits the red, so around 40 liters)

80% town / 20% motorway - 272 miles (30.8 mpg)

75% motorway / 25% town - 376 miles (42.6 mpg)
